The NID 2019 Question Paper is a useful previous-year resource for students preparing for the National Institute of Design (NID) entrance examination.
The paper provides insight into the type of aptitude, visual reasoning, general awareness, drawing and creative-thinking questions that appeared in the NID DAT Prelims. In 2019, the paper had a significant emphasis on subjective and drawing-based questions, making it particularly useful for understanding the creative demands of the examination.
Students can use the NID 2019 Question Paper PDF for both Part A and Part B to practise under exam-like conditions and understand how questions were framed.
Candidates can access the NID 2019 Question Paper PDF attached below. The PDF can be used to practise both sections of the paper and review the questions asked in the examination.
The NID 2019 Question Paper – Part A PDF provides candidates with access to the objective section of the previous-year entrance examination.
Students can download and solve the paper to understand the question format, practise aptitude-based questions, improve accuracy and develop better time-management skills. It is also useful for identifying common areas that require additional preparation before attempting the NID entrance exam.
The NID 2019 Question Paper – Part B PDF helps candidates practise the subjective and drawing-based questions asked in the previous-year entrance examination.
Students can use the paper to understand creative question formats, improve sketching and visualisation skills, practise presenting ideas through drawings, and develop better speed and time management while preparing for the NID entrance exam.
The NID DAT Prelims 2019 paper was divided into Part A and Part B. Part A consisted of objective questions, while Part B focused on subjective and drawing-based questions. The total paper was worth 100 marks, with Part A carrying 30 marks and Part B carrying 70 marks.

According to student reactions and exam analysis, Part A had 22 objective questions, while Part B contained four subjective questions. The objective questions included aptitude and general-awareness elements, whereas the subjective section placed greater emphasis on drawing and creative visualisation.
NID 2019 Part A tested candidates on objective aptitude-based questions. The section included questions that required observation, logical thinking, spatial understanding and general awareness. Students reported that the aptitude section was comparatively manageable, while the drawing section required more time and creative thinking.
Practising Part A can help candidates become familiar with the way NID frames questions that test visual and analytical abilities. Rather than relying only on memorisation, students should focus on improving observation, reasoning and the ability to interpret visual information quickly.
The attached Part A PDF can therefore be used as a previous-year practice resource. Candidates can first attempt the questions without checking solutions and later review their mistakes.
NID 2019 Part B carried the highest weightage in the Prelims paper, with 70 marks. It consisted of subjective questions that assessed drawing ability, creativity and visualisation. The questions required candidates to communicate ideas through sketches and interpret given situations from different perspectives.
The drawing section was considered more challenging by several students because the questions required considerable time and creative thinking. This makes Part B especially useful for aspirants who want to improve their speed, visualisation and drawing skills.
While practising the attached Part B PDF, students should focus not only on artistic detailing but also on whether the drawing clearly communicates the idea asked in the question.
Using the NID 2019 Question Paper strategically can help candidates assess their preparation, improve question-solving speed and identify areas that need more practice before the examination.
Attempt Part A in Fixed Time: Solve Part A within a fixed time limit to improve speed, accuracy and confidence while answering objective aptitude-based questions.
Analyse Your Mistakes: Review incorrect and doubtful answers after completing Part A. Identify weak concepts and revise the relevant topics before attempting another practice session.
Practise Part B: Draw answers on paper instead of only reading the questions. Focus on perspective, proportions, composition, creativity and clear visual communication.
Evaluate Your Drawings: After completing Part B, check whether your drawings address the question properly. Identify areas where sketching, observation or idea presentation can be improved.
Repeat the Practice: Solve the paper again after some time. Compare your performance to track improvements in speed, accuracy, drawing ability and overall time management.
The NID 2019 Question Paper PDF provides valuable practice material for understanding the aptitude and creative requirements of the NID entrance examination.
With Part A carrying 30 marks and Part B carrying 70 marks, the paper demonstrates the importance of balancing analytical ability with drawing and visualisation skills. Students can use the attached Part A and Part B PDFs for timed practice, question analysis and preparation for the NID entrance examination.
